Another JK Jeep Wrangler Unlimited on a Dodge 3/4 ton frame. A bit different from the Petersen's rig in that it has an older style front end that is widened and uses a custom dashboard with a Dodge truck instrument cluster and steering column. Note the width of the front end.

After four days of SEMA, our dedicated but exhausted correspondent is ready to go home. From his last day, the photos lean more toward the outrageous (a regular-width full-size running a Dana 110 and dually wheels!!), some donk cars, a diesel dragster, and a brush with celebrity: Ironhide, from the Transformers movie...although having seen the Dana 110 dually, I think Ironhide now needs an upgrade. Oh, and check out that brutal-looking Ford Excursion!
